Grrrrr.... Cheap Ink Cartridges.

I've just had to change my ink cartridge because it has run out of RED, it hasn't been used much and still shows three quarters full.

Have you tried cleaning the printheads? - it may just be blocked rather than empty.

Try sitting the cartridge on a few layers of damp kitchen towl for an hour or so to draw the ink out, its worked for me on a few occassions.

If your printer accepts them the continuous feed systems are great as they are generally much cheaper and you can see exactly how much has been used of each colour plus if your printer has the annoying combined colour cartridges then you can replace colours individually
